"No, if you'd asked, I would have just given it to you," Sekhmet is thoroughly bewildered by how these two seem to have not thought of that. "Why do you even want that book so badly?" It seems like a relatively worthless book to steal.

The red energy stings like a thousand bees and eats away at matter, a thoroughly unpleasant sensation. The further flames don't seem to be as effective. Less material disintegrates off of Eidolon this time. In fact, the being looks more fiery now than before.

It helps that Sekhmet doesn't really care about this particular book. She doesn't need it. "You could have just asked to borrow a book," she says, "Why would you break into my chambers to steal it?" She doesn't sound angry, just disappointed.

[Streets] On the one hand, that's not right. It wanted to destroy everyone who was a threat. And if burning someone isn't a threat, what is?

Re: Inside

"Then help me stop her... What's this?" Sekhmet's hand closes around the blanket lump. She gingerly tries to unfold the blanket from around it.
She's also gauging the succubi's reactions. She wants to know just how bad they think it would be for her to see it.

Sekhmet knows nothing about anatomy. What she does know is that that's a lot of blood and chest wounds. "Stay with me! Just, uh, keep awake, okay?" She pours fiendish energy into the wounded succubus. It's a stopgap measure at best, hopefully enough to keep her from expiring.
